| Salt Lake City-based Blue Frogg will not follow through on its option to purchase the assets of Suite101.com for US$155,000 and give the writers community a new lease on life after being spun out from its parent corporation (CNM, Jan. 23/02). The final date to exercise its option was May 15. Blue Frogg had already paid installments of US$15,000 and US$30,000 to Suite, and was to decide whether to add Suite101 to its growing stable of web properties including E-How, Delphi Forums, and IdeaExchange.
